I survived with my sister in the doomsday

Chapter 9 Go to the 2nd floor

I said hello to Brother Chen and hurried back to discuss the idea of ​​moving to the second floor with my family. I also brought the instant noodles to Grandpa. I opened the can of meat that Brother Chen just gave me and gave each of my younger sisters a small piece. I found that Yuanyuan was still in the bathroom. She had too many things to do and couldn't finish washing. I didn't want to leave any for her. She was not under our family's care. I poured all the remaining large pieces into Grandpa's instant noodles. Grandpa always feels hungry because of his high blood sugar, but he felt sorry for his sisters and refused to let them eat the instant noodles. I frowned and advised him that only if he was healthy could we survive better. The two sisters also let Grandpa eat the food obediently. Grandpa was willing to eat the food himself.

I am very pleased that my two younger sisters are finally starting to grow up.

At this time, Yuanyuan came back from the bathroom and suddenly found that we had eaten canned meat. Originally, these were common people's food, and she, a delicate lady, disdained them. But she couldn't stand the hunger after eating two breads and two sausages for two consecutive days. She asked me where the instant noodles came from and said she wanted to eat it too.

Seeing her bossy look, I asked angrily: "Yuanyuan, are you not going to look for your parents? How long are you going to stay with us? Our family is in financial difficulty..."

Seeing how I disliked her, she approached Feicui and complained, "Feicui, your wretched elder brother doesn't like me and wants to chase me away."

She was right. I really didn't like her. Although she was young, she always slandered me all day long. She started to say that I was vulgar. How could she know if I was vulgar or not? She thought I didn't know that he and Feicui always made up stories about me behind my back. It was mainly because I was fat and old, and Feicui was handsome and fierce. She was a girl who only liked good-looking people. She thought I was an eyesore, but I hated her.

Feicui hugged her and comforted her, saying that she had just heard volunteers say that they might cook sausages and pickled mustard for the refugees at noon, so she just had to be patient.

Looking at the way those two girls act, Feicui never calls me brother, only my name.

Yuanyuan was easy to coax. When she heard that she could eat, she immediately looked happy. She glanced at me and ignored me. I thought to myself that this girl was really annoying. Why was she pretending to be so rich?

At this time, my grandfather and I discussed moving to the second floor. When my grandfather heard that it would cost 10,000 yuan, he asked me hesitantly: "Xiao Fei, do you have that much money on you? Besides, if everything costs money to live upstairs, how can we afford it?" My grandfather thought about the long-term.

At this time, I deliberately looked at the cash register in the space, took out the money there under the cover of my backpack together with the money I found yesterday, and counted them in front of my grandfather. There were 14,200 putting the hundreds together. Just now, I accidentally heard that I could go to the second floor and I felt that I had enough money, so I thought of going to the second floor on impulse. Now I see that the money is not enough, so I might as well go and find out what's going on upstairs.

Thinking of this, I ran straight to the second floor. There was an elevator leading to the second floor, but now there are too many refugees, so the elevator is closed. Only two police officers are guarding the entrance of the safety passage. When they saw me coming, they shouted at me: No outsiders are allowed to stay here.

I quickly handed them two cigarettes and started to ask them how they could go to the second floor.

The two men looked at each other, took the cigarette, and then the older one explained to me that you can indeed live on this floor by paying, and asked me, "Do you have money with you?"

I asked hesitantly, "I heard that 10,000 yuan in cash is enough."

The man nodded and explained to me that most of the people living here were the families of the supporting leaders and the former internal staff of the factory. Because the place was not fully occupied, they were notified temporarily that ordinary refugees could pay to stay, but only in cash! If you bring cash, it would be a bargain. If there was no earthquake, 10,000 yuan would not be much at all. It was just that the earthquake came suddenly, and most people did not have so much cash at home, or they were in a hurry to flee and did not bring money with them. In addition, the Internet was not working, and the money in the online bank or passbook could not be withdrawn, so they were arranged to stay in a room at such a low price.

I said I wanted to see what the accommodation was like, was that ok? Seeing that they didn't want to pay attention to me, I simply took out the box of cigarettes I had just opened and put them on the table in front of them. Anyway, I had plenty of cigarettes in my space.

Seeing how generous I was, one of the younger ones whispered to me, "Brother, don't be picky at this time. There are rows of dormitory rooms here. Why do you need cash to move in? Do you really think the higher-ups are short of this little money? It's just that the leaders don't want to open it to the outside world and set up restrictions. Even if ordinary refugees know about this place, they can't squeeze in without money. Hurry up and book a room now while few people know about it. Now that other cities have also been affected by the disaster, it's estimated that there won't be other resettlement sites for a while. Being able to provide two boxed meals a day up there is definitely better than being down there."

After hearing what he said, I became a little anxious, and asked hesitantly if it was okay for our larger family to move in?

The man said that no more than five people should be allowed in a room.

After hearing this, I felt relieved and was about to pay the fee to register. One of them asked me to go to the community management area, which is a small room behind the stairs, and find the sister there to arrange a room for me.

I walked past the two people and took a few steps into the room at the door. The row of windows on the side of this room was almost the same as the room where the school dormitory manager lived. The room was about ten square meters in size and had a bed and a table. There were two older sisters sitting inside. One of them leaned over and asked me what was the matter.

I said I was a tenant who had just paid the rent. She obviously looked me up and down, took out a plate of keys, pushed open the door, came to me and asked me to follow her. As I followed her, I could see clearly that this floor was like a row of warehouses, with several corridors in the middle and rows of dormitory iron doors on both sides. Many doors were open. I couldn't help but turn my head to look out of curiosity. The conditions inside were actually much better than I imagined. Most of the four-story beds facing each other had mattresses and sheets, and there was even a small dining table in the middle and electrical appliances placed on the dining table!

Wow, it seems like it’s such a good deal to be able to live here!

The ones with open doors are usually old people who are ventilating. The elder sister said that this is the factory staff dormitory. Modern factory dormitories are designed in a more advanced way and have higher internal conditions. Most of the people living here are factory employees who are either working or volunteering. Some are from other places and have asked for leave to go home. After you move in, you must pay attention to hygiene and obey management, and you must not create conflicts. The higher-ups require that there should be no idle people here, and each household should send at least one person as a volunteer to help resettle the victims...

He kept talking all the way, and finally walked to a closed door. He opened the door and gave me the key. I looked up and saw that this room was on the shady side of the corridor. There was no window inside. I wanted to ask if there was a room with a window?

She obviously made an impatient sound and told me to obey the assignment. Why was she still being picky? I looked through all the things in my space. Apart from cigarettes, alcohol and candy, there was really nothing I could give her as a gift. But how depressing would it be to live in a room without windows? I decided to just give her the money. I quickly took out 500 yuan and stuffed it into the eldest sister's hand without any expression, and told her that there was an elderly person at home who wanted to bask in the sun.

Seeing that there was no one around, she quickly stuffed the money into her pocket, then turned around and opened the room opposite the dormitory. This room was a single room with a window, and asked me in a kind manner, "Since there is an elderly person, can you take a look at this room?"

I thought to myself that money really makes the world go round, and quickly said gratefully: Okay, okay, this one.

After she gave me the key, she said her name was Zhang Fengling. She asked me my age. Obviously, I looked old and she didn't expect that I was only 25 years old. She told me that she would be my direct supervisor from now on. She asked me not to disturb others when I moved in with my family. There was a special passage for employees to enter and exit, which was on the other side. If I wanted to buy something, there was a small supermarket next to her duty room and I could go there, but I couldn't pay online at the moment and only accepted cash.
